2026 Home design trends:
what's in & what's out

FOR LUXURY HAMPTONS HOMES

If you’re planning to build or remodel in the Hamptons, it pays to look ahead. In 2026, luxury home design is shifting toward organic warmth, sculptural detail, and wellness-driven layouts. At Cruz Brothers Construction, we work closely with each homeowner to create a vision that feels timeless—yet totally of the moment.

Here are the top luxury trends to watch in 2026, and a few dated features to leave behind:

1. In: Textured Walls | Out: Flat, Glossy Surfaces

Expect to see more limewash, plaster, fluted wood, and handcrafted tile. These materials create movement and depth—a response to the overly polished minimalism of past years.

2. In: Quite Luxury | Out: Overdone Glam

Soft neutrals, curated pieces, and custom millwork are in. The goal is refined, not showy. Hamptons homes are turning into calming sanctuaries, not statement palaces.

3. In: Natural Stone + Soft Curves | Out: Angular, High-Gloss Kitchens

Kitchens in 2026 will embrace curved islands, stone countertops with natural edging, and integrated lighting, inspired by nature and Italian design houses.

4. In: Wellness Zones | Out: Unused Dining Rooms

Expect dedicated wellness nooks: cold plunge areas, massage rooms, meditation spaces. They’re replacing formal spaces that no longer serve daily life.

Build with What’s Next, Not What’s Trending. Cruz Brothers homes are designed to last—emotionally, structurally, and aesthetically. Let us help you bring your 2026 vision to life in the Hamptons.
